Spurring or Blurring Professional Standards? The Role of Digital Technology in Implementing Journalistic Role Ideals in Contemporary Newsrooms
This study examines the perceived relevance and implementation of competing normative ideals in journalism in times of increasing use of digital technology in newsrooms. Based on survey and content analysis data from 37 countries, we found a small positive relationship between the use of digital research tools and “watchdog” performance. However, a stronger and negative relationship emerged between the use of digital audience analytics and the pe…
Tests of Manhood
The general public, both within Ireland and further abroad, has begun to take an interest in Irish lifting stones. A simple premise, lifting stones are historically significant stones which were typically lifted as tests of manhood within rural and fishing communities in Ireland. It is an Irish practice with global parallels in Europe and Asia. The popular history of this endeavour is currently being written with claims that this practice, once p…
You can't shoot another bullet until you've reloaded the gun”
Deloading refers to a purposeful reduction in training demand with the intention of enhancing preparedness for successive training cycles. Whilst deloading is a common training practice in strength and physique sports, little is known about how the necessary reduction in training demand should be accomplished. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to determine current deloading practices in competitive strength and physique sports. Eighteen…
Command Assessment in the Bellum Gallicum
Caesar’s skill in rhetoric means that in the Bellum Gallicum each word was chosen with careful consideration of its impact on the audience. His references to fortuna are no exception; the word was used persuasively throughout the work, such as to characterise the Gauls or exonerate Caesar from potential criticism. While it therefore serves literary purposes, closer examination of the term provides insight into Caesar’s strategic thinking, as he e…

Australian media and the politics of belonging
'Australian Media and the Politics of Belonging' addresses key topical themes and concerns in contemporary Australia, which will be of interest to both students and researchers concerned with developing a greater understanding of issues of belonging, and to a broader and general readership concerned with engaging with this key area of national and international interest.
Media and the politics of belonging
Nolan, Burgin, Farquharson and Marjoribanks focus on media as a significant site through which a politics of belonging is played out, focusing particularly on coverage of Sudanese Australians. To this end, they analyse letters to the editor that concern Sudanese Australians in three Victorian newspapers in 2007, a highly significant year in which this group became the focus of significant levels of (predominantly negative) media coverage. Through…
We are not North Korea
This article draws on an empirical analysis of the testimonies of Chinese journalists to (re)consider the nature of professionalism in contemporary Chinese journalism. We draw on earlier work by a number of scholars to develop an analysis of the testimonies in order to trace both how professionalism is shaped by cultural, social, organizational, institutional and political influences, and how these work to shape everyday journalistic practices an…
Lessons from America? News and Politics in Hard Times
On 30 October 2010, US news satirists Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert jointly held the 'Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear', attracting a crowd of over 200,000 in Washington, DC, and an estimated national audience of two million viewers on Comedy Central. While Stewart denied it, this event was widely interpreted as a satirical response to Fox News Anchor Glenn Beck's earlier 'Restoring Honor' rally, a controversial event that hosted numerous fi…
Mediated Multiculturalism
While multiculturalism has been central to the Australian political and social landscape since the 1970s, it has been recently challenged, with the (re)emergence of discourses of ‘social cohesion’ and ‘integration’. In this paper, we engage with these contests by focusing on newspaper coverage of Sudanese Australians around the time of the 2007 Federal Election. We ask: how did the Australian print media represent Sudanese people during this peri…
Journalism and Professional Education
This article revisits a set of long-standing debates to suggest how the role of universities in providing a 'professional education' in journalism might be (re)considered. Existing arguments over journalism education identify a need to move beyond the limiting frame of a presumed 'industry-academic dichotomy' to develop a more critical approach to professional education. While supporting this direction, this article draws on work suggesting that …
Media, Citizenship and Governmentality
Historically, the concept of citizenship has been central to discussions of the role and performance of public service broadcasters. Within such discussion, however, this concept is often treated in two distinct ways simultaneously. On one hand, citizenship is understood as a theoretical ideal that, to a greater or lesser extent, is performatively embodied in existing broadcast institutions that enshrine and uphold individuals' rights as members …

The Development of Federico Della Valle's Plays
Federico Della Valle's works have achieved recognition in this century for the remarkable contrast they provide to the decline in literary standards in Italy after the death of Tasso. In spite of their obvious merits his four plays-Adelonda di Frigia, Ester, ludit, La Reina di Scozia-shared the obscurity of their author's life and were totally neglected after his death. Although published in the early seventeenth century they were ignored until B…
